Amphibious Aircraft Market by Aircraft Type (Fixed Wing and Rotary Wing), Engine Type (Turboprop and Turbine), and End-Use (Civil Aviation, General Aviation, and Military Aviation): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021–2027

Amphibious Aircraft Market Outlook – 2027

An amphibious aircraft is also known as a floatplane or flying boat. Amphibious aircraft, also known as amphibian aircraft is the type of aircraft having the ability to land on both land and water. In the global amphibious aircraft market, some of the aircraft are seaplanes that are equipped with retractable wheels. Moreover, the amphibian aircraft with retractable wheels have a low fuel economy, in comparison to other types of aircraft. Also, the market has amphibious aircraft that have reinforced keels fitted, allowing the aircraft to land on snow or ice. Furthermore, the most prominent factor driving the global amphibious market is its suitability for offshore applications, where due to the unavailability of a landing surface, the aircraft has to be landed on water.

• The supply chain disruption is expected to affect the future growth of the companies due to lockdown.
• The revenue is not being generated for the companies due to the ongoing pandemic, which will result in major losses across the year.
• Companies have to deal on a significant margin basis to revive the market.
• A huge monetary loss has been accounted for in the revenue generation of the Amphibious aircraft companies due to the lockdown.

Top Impacting Factors: Market Scenario Analysis, Trends, Drivers, and Impact Analysis

The global amphibious market is driven by increase in tourism across the globe. Also, various government initiatives to foster tourism encourages huge private sector investments in the global amphibious aircraft market. Moreover, the advancements in technology boost the rate of the application while improving aircraft efficiency and reducing costs. Furthermore, amphibious aircraft are used for carrying out search and rescue missions, which is proliferating the demand for the same in the global market. However, the number of accident rates of amphibious aircraft is increasing worldwide, which is likely to hamper the growth of the global amphibious aircraft market. 

The global amphibious aircraft market trends are as follows:

Increase in worldwide tourism to boost the demand 

Tourism is considered as one of the most crucial factors propelling the growth of the global amphibious aircraft market. Most of the nations are looking at amphibious aircrafts as being a lucrative option in terms of passenger travel. Also, the lifestyle change, increase in consumer spending toward travel, reduced cost of aircraft manufacturing, and others are the factors anticipated to accelerate the growth rate of the global amphibious market. Moreover, the use of composites while designing the base of aircraft enhances the experience of aircraft while increasing its durability for a longer period. Furthermore, these composites offer protection from corrosion, while reducing the weight of the aircraft. 

Advancements in technology to foster the growth 

Technological advancements play a vital role in improving the performance and efficiency of an aircraft. In addition, the global amphibious aircraft market is witnessing various innovations in terms of increasing speed, reducing fuel consumption, and reducing the cost of manufacturing, which in turn is proliferating the demand for amphibious aircraft. Moreover, companies like LISA Airplanes has innovated the concept of using sea foils for amphibious aircraft to eliminate the need for designing traditional hull shaped amphibious aircraft. In addition, while taking off from the water, the sea foils fitted to the fuselage of the aircraft is used for lifting the fuselage of the aircraft at high speeds.
